Ce Ce, Smooth Like Strait Work Ahead Of Breeders’ Cup Tries

Two of trainer Michael McCarthy's major Breeders' Cup candidates, multiple Grade 1 winner Ce Ce and Grade 1 Shoemaker Mile winner Smooth Like Strait, moved closer to their goals Friday with four-furlong workouts at Sana Anita Park in Arcadia Calif., Ce Ce timed in :47.80 and Smooth Like Strait in :47.40.

They are being pointed to the Filly & Mare Sprint and the Mile, respectively.

“They'll have two more breezes before the Breeders' Cup,” McCarthy said. “We're on course.”

McCarthy plans to retain their regular riders, Victor Espinoza and Umberto Rispoli, for the Breeders' Cup races.
